How do you spell out a scream?

You can't really spell out a scream, as it's a sound, not a word. However, you can use words to describe or represent a scream:

Onomatopoeia:

* "AAAAAAA!"

* "EEEEEEEK!"

* "OH NO!"

* "HELP!"

* "SHOUTING"

Descriptive words:

* "A bloodcurdling scream"

* "A piercing shriek"

* "A deafening roar"

* "A desperate cry"

* "A chilling wail"

Ultimately, the best way to "spell out" a scream is to imagine the sound itself.
